  Case: Student Teacher
I recently welcomed a student teacher into my classroom whom I am, as well as the students are, really enjoying. I have noticed however that the students like to play sides and ask the student teacher can they do certain things that they know they are not allowed to do; sharpen pencils in the middle of the day or retrieve something out of their backpacks after the morning announcements. I thought about giving the student teacher my classroom management plan to have him/her overlook so we can be on one accord, but have not gotten around to it. I have however mentioned to her some of the rules/ procedures in the classroom as well as addressed this manner with the students. I do not want to correct the student teacher in front of the students as I would like for them to respect and treat the student teacher as equally as myself. How do you all suggest I should handle this manner?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You should set aside time to sit down and talk to your student teacher and discuss your classroom management plan. Being a student teacher, I always want to follow my CT's lead. However, sometimes it is hard to do this, especially at the beginning of the internship. It would benefit you, your students, and your student teacher to discuss your policies and procedures.
